[VDB]TrendScalp-FractalBox-3EMA

26 Mar 2022

There are many indicators with William’s Fractal and Alligator. As many use EMA’s it may be useful to define a 3-EMA ribbon and combining Fractal Levels/Box (filling background between top and bottom fractals) for trend scalping. I searched for this kind of indicator in community – some show fractals, some just levels, some with alligator etc. but couldn't find the one needed. Hence thought of this indicator which may be of interest to other users too.

Key Points:

• EMA ribbon is created using 3 EMA’s 35/70/105. Users can change these as per their preference. This is used for trend identification – 1. Bullish bias if Price > EMA1 > EMA2 > EMA3. 2. Bearish bias if Price < EMA1 < EMA2 < EMA3.
  
• Background is marked during crossing of EMA1 and EMA2 to alert possible trend change.
  
• 5-bar fractals are used to mark the Fractal levels and background between top and bottom fractals are filled to create a Fractal Box.
  
• Fractal levels are marked only when the fractal formation is complete. Given offset is used this is lagging.
  

How to Use:

• Sloping EMA ribbon is used for identifying the trend.
  
• Fractal box break-out/ break-downs are used to trigger the trade with fractal high/low for entry/SL. Waiting for price contraction towards EMA ribbon resulting in smaller boxes is key to initiate trade. Avoid bigger boxes as SL’s will be big and price may move within. To draw the vertical lines of FractalBox change fractal level0 style to step-line.
  
• This indicator combined with the cycle high/low (overbought/oversold) indicators such as CCI/Stochastic/RSI etc. can make it a good trend scalping setup while trading in the direction of momentum in higher timeframe.
  
• This setup could be used for any timeframes. Do your back-testing before using it in live market.
  

This indicator was achieved by combing some fractal ideas from “Fractal and Alligator Alerts by JustUncleL”
